DJ Kam – Ear Drum Medicine (Netgroove, 2004 Mix CD)

A 2004 CD Mixtape from the BeyondThere production team member and Mr Bongo record shop resident, DJ Kam.

This promo-only mix was released in a CD-single jewel case on his own Netgroove label and is filled with an often obscure and occasionally not-so-obscure, selection of Old School Hip Hop, some Independent Hip Hop he had been involved in making from the time, and a plethora of breaks and beats all seamlessly mixed and beatmatched.

Featuring: BeyondThere, Just Four, Grandmaster Flash, Spyder D, Kurtis Blow, Outlaw 4, Manzel, Fonda Rae, T-Ski Valley, Cotton Candi, Tom Tom Club, Soho, Kenny Dope and many more. No track listing was included with the release… so you will just have to figure that out yourself!

Beyond There – Something From The Radio (1998 Cassette-Only Mixtape)

A 1998 promo-cassette-only release by the UK based production team “Beyond There”.

Made up of Kam, Tommy Koi & Huw Bowles of behind-the-counter-at-the-soho-Mr-Bongos-in-the-late-90s fame, this excellent 60 minute two-sided cassette was a mix that was originally broadcast on German radio station “93.0FM BTTB” (Back To The Basics) in November 1998.

The cassette cover artwork is by Graff legend Mode 2 (Chrome Angels / Crime Time Kings).
